Privatisation kills.
The health of thousands of NHS patients could be at risk and one woman is reported to have died as a result of problems with the privatisation earlier this month of the NHS home oxygen supply service.
A spokeswoman for the Department of Health (DoH) described as "a sad case" the death of Alice Broderick, 63, from Carlisle after reports that her oxygen delivery from one private provider came too late to help her overcome breathing difficulties at her home.
Mrs Broderick died last week, reportedly after waiting in vain for six hours for an emergency oxygen delivery. A supply was only delivered to her home after she had been rushed to hospital, where she later died.
The DoH admitted last night that the transfer to four private companies of the service which delivers supplies to patients' homes has resulted in a shortage of oxygen. Around 60,000 patients in the UK rely on deliveries of oxygen to their homes, which have been hit by the transfer of supplies to the new privately managed Home Oxygen Service at the start of this month.
The privatisation plan was announced last summer by health minister Jane Kennedy who said patients would enjoy "round the clock access to expert advice and support in making the best use of the latest equipment".

Cartoon Mania
Er is al veel inkt - en jammer genoeg ook bloed - gevloeid n.a.v. de Deense cartoons. Dan Steely kan natuurlijk niet achterblijven met een mening.Ik doe dit aan de hand van one- en two-liners om te bewijzen dat je met de juiste slogans ook genuanceerd kan zijn (tip voor JM Dedecker :)

De meeste van de cartoons in kwestie haalden het niveau van 't Pallieterke. Maar daar gaat het niet om, want blijkbaar zijn alle afbeeldingen van de profeet verboden. Was hij het allereerste slachtoffer van de paparazzi?
****
Trouwens de meeste zaken die zijn verboden door de Koran/Bijbel/Thora staan er in werkelijkheid niet eens in maar zijn de opportunistische interpretaties van de mollahs/kardinalen/rabbis.

ik ben geen grote fan van georganiseerde religie. Ten eerste zijn de monotheïstische godsdiensten per definitie exclusief, de anderen hebben altijd ongelijk. Telkens ze in de VS 'God bless America' scanderen, zeggen ze er eigenlijk ook bij '… and to hell with the rest'.
****
de halfbakken, lafhartige houding van sommige linkse media stoten me tegen de borst, de Guardian en de Morgen voorop.
****
Het gevolg is dat de rechtse en extreemrechtse actoren het debat monopoliseren. Willen we echt dat iemand als Paul Belien onze belangen vertegenwoordigt in deze materie? check de links uit op deze site, naar namen als 'Pat Buchanan' en 'Grover Norquist' ; de neocons zijn te soft voor deze mensen!!!
